Sandown Park Race 3 - Sportsbet Green Ticks Damsels Dash
LIGHTNING SPEED (2) had the drop on the lead from the rails draw last start but could only manage second, beaten 5 lengths (29.59) at this track in a Grade 4/5 over 515m. The form from her last run stacks up well. One of the contenders. READ THE ROOM (1) placed last time (25.55) at Shepparton in a Grade 4/5, finishing third and beaten 4 lengths. Has already won two times from this draw. With even luck and a clean start can sneak into the finish. PAW GERTRUDE (6) ran a good time (25.22) when placing three back at Warrnambool but has missed the frame since, last time out finishing fourth (25.75) at Shepparton. Can improve sharply here. CANYA MAROONS (3) has claims fresh from a recent placing at this track and distance.

Has been in the minors the last two, the latest showing strong pace early but gathered in and finished a 4 length third over 450m Shepparton in 25.55. More than capable and has to be included.

Struggling to break through but racing consistently, finishing in the minors three starts on end. Last time out flew the lids with a fast early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when second (29.59) at this track over 515m. Fought on last time. Right in the mix again.

In the money last time at this track (29.88) in a Grade 5, finishing a 6 length second. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and two minors. Among the main chances.

Had been racing in honest fashion, recording four placings in a row, before finishing fourth (30.01) at this track last start. Boxed awkwardly and looks tested this line up.

Charged out of the boxes with a strong early split and went straight to the front, scoring an all the way win (30.08) over 525m at The Meadows. Has ability and can run well.

Caught the eye with a fast early split last time and setting up a 0.9 lengths win at this track over 515m in 29.66, making it two wins on end. Can bring up a hat-trick.
